Hello @Izzybella and welcome to the Dementia Support Forum. You will find lots of support and help here, so if there is any particular information that you want just ask and someone will able to help you.Hi, I'm new here. My mum is showing signs of dementia / alzheimer's. She has been assessed by "the memory lady" who said she isn't far enough along to be diagnosed yet.... (great help)
Every single thing is repeated over and over and over. She gets confused. Forgets words. Makes up things when there is a gap in her memory. She is aware of it but no reality on how bad it is.
She has no partner and I'm an only child. I have no idea what I'm doing and have no support. So decided to give this a try.
That's my story. Hello 👋
